It's not good news...

After further tests, doctors have told my Nan that she has serious heart failure and they have given her maybe a couple months to live. She has taken the news very well, she's accepted it and said she's ready to go. Nan always said she didn't want to live past 75 anyway. Obviously this news has hit me hard as I just didn't expect it. I know she's old and that she'd leave us eventually but I just didn't think it would happen yet. She's my only remaining grandparent and it'll be odd not having her around. I lost my Grandad a few years ago to a sudden heart attack and that was a big shock; I suppose at least this time, we know what to expect, but it's still gonna be hard when the time comes. I'm hoping she'll slip away peacefully in her sleep.
